Following a disheartening preseason encounter that shattered the Dallas Cowboys’ hopes of Super Bowl glory, the team swiftly took action to instill confidence in their players through a comprehensive mental development program. Their efforts bore fruit as the Cowboys commenced the season with a resounding victory over the New England Giants, denying them any points.
In their pursuit of supremacy within their division, the Cowboys, regrettably, suffered a narrow defeat at the hands of their divisional rivals, the Philadelphia Eagles. While this loss left a bitter taste in the mouth of Dak Prescott, it was a cause for celebration for NBA star Grant Williams, a devoted Eagles fan.
Mavs’ Grant Williams trolls Dallas Cowboys
as the Mavericks forward had just joined them in celebrating their unique distinction, as the only team in this season with a record of eight consecutive wins. Prior to the Mavericks’ clash with the Hornets on Sunday night, Williams made an appearance in a press conference adorned in a Kelly green Jason Kelce jersey.
It was entirely acceptable for him to sport the Eagles’ jersey as a show of support for the team. However, the player later revealed the rationale behind his choice of Kelce’s jersey during the celebration when he extended his birthday wishes to the Eagles player.
A reporter asked, “Who’s 62?”
Then the forward replied, “Jason Kelce, you know, the best center in the game… Happy birthday Jason Kelce, too, shoutout on the win.”
Eagles edge out Cowboys in thrilling showdown
Without beating the Eagles, the Cowboys had nothing but to do to claim their legacy in the NFC. While the Eagles defensive play won the night, the Dallas team had to embrace a 28-25 defeat, letting the Eagles climb up in the standings over them.
Nevertheless, before accepting the defeat, the Cowboys led the fans in attendance to witness a nail-biting game when both teams completed the first quarter by adding the same point to the scoreboard. The expectation to overcome the Eagles began to soar when the Dallas team soon placed them in a leading position with a seven-point lead.
However, their dominance did not last long, as Philly soon stole the game from them, leading them into jeopardy and tackling their defensive tactics. With the win, the Eagles’ Jalen Hurts etched his name besides many NFL greats.
Though Prescott did his best, he did not get enough support from the offensive lines. Per Bleacher Report, the Cowboys came into Sunday averaging just 3.9 yards per carry.
Furthermore, injuries and inconsistent play have plagued the Dallas team’s offensive line. In the Week 9 game, they even lost their other offensive weapon, Dallas Goedart due to a fractured forearm.
The Dallas team is going to face the New York Giants in their upcoming clash. Do you think they can prove their legacy again in Week 10?
